Check out the new Nikon Rumors Forum

The Nikon Rumors Forum is now running on a new platform. The old forum is still available online in read-only mode until I figure out how to transfer everything over. The new forum offers several useful features, including the "Ask a question" option which I believe will also be helpful for many blog readers:

Will the new format only have the headline for each article? The current format has the advantage that part of the article shows up right there on the page. If the article is interesting, one can click for more. Now one can no longer glance at the article; one can only see the headline.

The old forum was also setup that way and I believe it is easier to navigate. You still have the different categories on the sidebar.

The articles are separate from the forum

Oh yea, the blog and the forum are two different pages. Only I can post on the blog, everyone can post on the forum

Is the same jerk moderating it? Sorry to say it but he/she is the most cranky moderator I’ve ever come across…

I guess you have not been on the forum for years.

Nikodoby wasn’t that bad although he was definitely quick to moderate..

It is odd. If you don’t like the forum or the moderator, why bother to come back?

Why do you have to re-register to access the forums, or not be able to do so through Disqus? And all that whiteness, it’s blinding!

The forum uses a separate database and you have to re-register or login with a social media account.

Why can’t we sign in with Disqus account to post on forum? Is that a bug?
